I'm not sure I understand how that would work, but I have a vague idea...

It's not really the work that worries me (that stuff's trivial to make),
it's the addition of more and more complicated tables...

Yeah, but I wasn't sure how to implement the same amount of space the best
way. The larger space is due to a <br>. Suggestions?

See 2.5.

The list of other languages will go between them. They're not there simply
because I built the page in a non-standard environment.

That's a generic footer, I'd prefer to keep it there.

Maybe the latter...

Like your second point, what I think would be the issue is that the links
would be rounded and the cards wouldn't... but I guess I'll have to play
with it since several people like it on the left...

Let me reiterate, I'm not doing this just because I feel it's (slightly)
demode.
